Roy “Chicky” Arad has informed us that Chenard Walcker, a friend of the online music world, is slowly recovering from a diabetic coma. His brother reports that he is not physically suffering. He fell into the coma in September, and is now working on speech development and object differentiation.

Chenard is the prolific visual and musical collage artist who operates the Free Sample Zone with 58 releases available for download, including one for Oddio Overplay. Chenard also has two releases available on our label and he has contributed to various compilations.

So many of us have benefited from and enjoy Chenard’s work. This is our chance to repay our sweet friend and to send him our love with a tribute release on WM Recordings. More details will be available soon.

“Great vocals, excellent drums, and tight and playful bass guitar – these guys are talented musicians with a good producer (Davide Cristiani). “Cry” just keeps moving, high energy joy, the kind of song you can’t help moving your head to.”

Halloween is meant to be scary, right? Year after year we dust off the old silly novelty records. While they are fun, they not at all frightening. Oddio Overplay put the challenge to musical artists the world over to create Halloween music that is “frightening, damaging and disturbing.” No “Monster Mash,” instead creepy soundtracks to a fiendish Halloween. They succeeded with CALLING ALL FIENDS, a two hour collection of their original pieces.
